FW: PDF and Open Data Community Group Launched

I’m not sure but I think the requirements for associating data in documents might be addressed by this new W3C CG.

    There’s been enough progress on getting linked data into and out of PDF files to work on some guidelines.
            
            If you’re interested, please join, and encourage those interested in the topic to join too:

                With your support, the PDF and Open Data Community Group has been launched:
                  http://www.w3.org/community/pdf-open-data/

                
                This group was originally proposed on 2016-07-17
                by Larry Masinter. The following people supported its
                creation: 
                      Larry Masinter
                      Rohan Thacker
                      Herb Jellinek
                      Mike Perlman
                      Abe Jellinek
                      Leonard Rosenthol
                  
                To join the group, please use:
                 http://www.w3.org/community/pdf-open-data/join

                
                Please note that supporting a group is different from joining
                a group. Supporters must also enroll if they wish to participate.
                
                --------------------
                PDF has a reputation of being bad for 'open data', but there are already
                features of PDF that can be used for storing and retrieving data
                associated with parts of a PDF file, and more features coming.
                
                
                A draft charter will be posted soon.
